up close portraits of a white wild horse

The white horse has been a frequent figure of fascination and awe in literature, folklore, and art since ancient times, spanning many different genres of literature and art. The Legend of the White Stallion is an ancient story that has been passed down through generations.

 

According to the legend, if one were to (against all odds) find and ride this mythical creature, they would be granted great power and success. In some re-tellings, the white stallion is believed to be a symbol of freedom, courage, strength, and purity - as well as a sign of hope in times of difficulty.

 

This legend has been a part of human history for centuries and the white horse has been featured in mythology, folklore and literature around the world. From the Celtic legend of the white stallion to the Native American story of White Horse, this creature has become a powerful symbol and has inspired large bodies of work.

 

The white stallion can also be seen as a representation of the American spirit – with its relentless pursuit of freedom and justice. It has been featured in many classic works of literature such as Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Jack London's Call Of The Wild. A symbol of the heroic journey each of us must take to reach our goals.
